A TOWN HALL MEETING FEATURING:
SUSANNAH HESCHEL – ELI BLACK PROFESSOR OF JEWISH STUDIES, DARTMOUTH COLLEGE
PAMELA LIGHTSEY – ASSOCIATE DEAN, SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY
STEPHEN PROTHERO – PROFESSOR OF RELIGION, CAS
MODERATED BY KENN ELMORE – DEAN OF STUDENTS

The tragic events in Paris of a few weeks ago have provoked not only an outpouring of support for France but also a troubling upsurge in anti-Muslim action in the USA and elsewhere. This open forum invites experts on racism, the marginalization of religious minorities, and anti-Semitism to place anti-Muslim rhetoric, and the violent acts that these words can provoke, within a broader political, religious, and social framework. Panelists will speak briefly, followed by plenty of time for questions.
